    only find a very small one. He fired the stone at the bull and hit him somewhere in the forehead when he was coming near him. This stunned the bull, he staggered, and Flynn got him with the cleithailpín. He laid the bull out on the ground half dead and went away. After a while the bull went slowly back to Bunán.
